|A Photo Journal Series| From The Passenger Seat

Here is my second post of the series From the Passenger Seat, this time on the road was going to Paris (whoopi). I have to admit that most roads so far I have traveled in Europe have identical scenery, so I think I will minimize the amount of posts I do of this series so that I do not bore you, I will only post when I have seen something different and much more unique. Also, I don't own a professional camera so my photos are not the best of the best, when I do get my camera, I will be able to give you better and closer views of some of the castles and towns up the hills because they are stunning, but that I cannot capture it from my camera. Regardless, I find it fun and interesting to capture what I get to see on the road, mostly nature, which I don't mind because it places me in a relaxed state of mind. Here are some of the images that I captured from the passenger seat, I hope you enjoy them.

|Chic Reads Wednesdays| The Photo Traveler x Giveaway



i am extremely excited to bring you our next read of our virtual book club, yes I acknowledge that I haven't brought you the review of our last book The Beautiful Fall, I was having Internet difficulties on Monday night to post for you on Tuesday so I decided to post it next Tuesday (stay tuned). As I was saying, I am excited to bring you this read, because this read is like no other. You see a dear friend of mine whom I have known since the days of house parties, pom poms, gossip and homecomings a.k.a High School has written his first book. The day I found out he had accomplished a long time dream of his, I was elated. There is something to be said about those who live out their dreams, who go through sweat and tears to make them happen and if any of these people are my friends, the better. In some weird way I associate a friend's success as part of my own, can't really describe it, maybe is because I am happy when others are happy and success in anything brings happiness. I can't wait to start reading, I know it's my type of book because it is imaginative, adventurous and filled with suspense.

The point has been made, I am happy for my friend Arthur and since we are both basking in joy we want to play nice by giving one of my readers a lucky chance to win a signed copy of his book The Photo Traveler (read more about it on the site). To enter scroll down below. Also, the virtual reading club will come to you every other month, so that we have two months to read a book. Looking forward to hear your feedback on this month's book.
